Election day started normally. Only three voting machines have failed. However, voting is taking place via paper ballots in these polling stations, the Spokesperson of the Central Election Commission Tsvetozar Tomov announced.

In other polling stations (in Belitsa and Yakoruda), a decision will be taken when it becomes clear whether the problems can be eliminated.

Some members of polling stations abroad did not show up and are being replaced by alternates. So far, there are less problems during today’s two-in-one elections as compared to the early general elections on July 11, Tsvetozar Tomov added.
